This blog is named after my dog, Dino the wonder dog. Other than that, this blog doesn’t have a lot to do with him, except that some days, when I am just too busy or too tired or have a migraine, I let Dino write my blog for me. On days when he has not taken over the computer, I write about my life – the past, the present and the future - my travels far and near and my home. I would love it if you would follow along.

Sleeping with the Lion and the Lamb

O God, you have declared me perfect in your eyes;
you have always cared for me in my distress; now hear me as I call again. Have
mercy on me. Hear my prayer.

2 The Lord God asks, “Sons of men, will you forever
turn my glory into shame by worshiping these silly idols, when every claim
that’s made for them is false?”

3 Mark this well: The Lord has set apart the redeemed
for himself. Therefore he will listen to me and answer when I call to him. 4
Stand before the Lord in awe, and do not sin against him. Lie quietly upon your
bed in silent meditation. 5 Put your trust in the Lord, and offer him pleasing
sacrifices.

6 Many say that God will never help us. Prove them
wrong, O Lord, by letting the light of your face shine down upon us. 7 Yes, the
gladness you have given me is far greater than their joys at harvest time as
they gaze at their bountiful crops. 8 I will lie down in peace and sleep, for
though I am alone, O Lord, you will keep me safe.

Psalm 4, The Living Bible

Back to reading the book of Psalms. Here is another beautiful song written by David . The last lines make me think of the picture of the lion lying down with the lamb. Sorry I don't have a picture of them together.

How Did I Get Here?

I have always wanted to be a writer, but in 1986, I fell into the medical field and have yet to crawl out. After a lot of reflection, I realize that maybe health care is my calling, but what is my passion? Writing. I also have a passion for my Savior Jesus. What else do you need to know? I have a wonderful husband, two grown children, four cats, and of course, Dino the wonder dog. In my spare time, I enjoy sewing on a cloudy day and laying in the sun on a sunny day.
